[AccessD] Swelling database

All of the above, although really only one major table/form plus a few queries.  Lots of text in memo fields but only nine fields.  Really simple and dumb.  I'm learning a lot from you.  (Does anyone know of a good basic manual?  I think I've seen them all and they never have what I'm looking for.)  Thanks again,
B.

Is it just tables in your db or forms/report/queries etc., as well?

My little database had 575 text entries and was 968 KB in size this morning.
I added 50 text entries that were like the others, compacted it, and it had
grown to 1924 KB!  I had added some query forms but removed them.  Is
something seriously wrong?  What should I do about it?

Thanks!
Barbara
